Sheet of notes with a small sketch of a bird in flight
Untranscribed mirror-writing beside a pen study of a soaring bird
The page is covered with Leonardo's mirror-script, none of which is transcribed in this edition. At the upper right a small pen sketch shows a bird with outstretched wings gliding above a line that suggests the air or the terrain below. Further untranscribed text is present across the whole sheet.

Bird gliding on outstretched wings
A rapid pen sketch at the top of the page shows a bird seen from above or in front, its wings spread wide as it glides. A faint horizontal line runs beneath it, suggesting a current of air or a distant landscape. No accompanying text is transcribed for this sheet.
